Warning: Contains spoilers for chapter #254 of Jujutsu Kaisen
Summary
Sukuna's battle is losing momentum as there are no strong opponents left for him to fight. Miguel may not be able to defeat Sukuna despite the hype in the latest chapter. Jujutsu Kaisen struggles to maintain the initial excitement of combat with supporting characters returning after the defeat of the main cast.
Jujutsu Kaisen'S climactic final battle against Sukuna seems to be running out of steam and his next opponent, Miguel, all but confirms a major problem with the current arc. The latest chapter reveals another talented wizard has fallen into Sukuna's hands, casting doubt on whether there is still a worthy opponent for him to fight, as the series brings back an old character, Little is known about his next fight.
Chapter #254 of Jujutsu Kaisen reveals that Sukuna also defeated Kusakabe with relative ease and his next opponent will be none other than Miguel., a supporting character in Jujutsu Kaisen 0 who fought Gojo during the Night Parade of the Hundred Demons. Interestingly, the editor's note at the end of the latest chapter calls Miguel a “Gojo competitor,” trying to hone his abilities before being pitted against Sukuna.
However, since Gojo was defeated, Jujutsu Kaisen has exaggerated the abilities of each witch who faced Sukuna, only for them to be quickly defeated without causing much damage. With much of the main cast similarly defeated, there's not much hope for Miguel, which proves the series is quickly driving itself into a dead end and there's no one interesting left to face Sukuna.

Like every other witch who has entered the final battle, the latest chapter also shows that perhaps Miguel could be the one to defeat Sukuna. However, fans have also hoped for more and been disappointed too many times for this to no longer be believable. Both witches and fans of the series initially placed all their hopes on Gojo, who failed quite shockingly. Since then, the strongest witches of Jujutsu Kaisen, such as Kashimo, Higuruma, Yuji, Maki, Kusakabe, and even Yuta, who was considered Gojo's potential successor, all entered the fight and were beaten. failed after a few chapters.
Kusakabe is almost the last line of defense against Sukuna and, despite the latest chapter's attempt to hype him up, his predictable failure has left the series with no interesting opponents for Sukuna to face, much less one that could give allowing him to really give his best effort. More importantly, Miguel's abilities aren't as great as the series has shown them to be.
While Miguel was able to keep up with Gojo for a short time, His only advantage stems from the Black Rope, allowing him to cancel Gojo's Cursed Technique. He may have a good understanding of Cursed Energy when he trained Yuta in Africa, but considering Sukuna's performance so far, Miguel probably won't make as much of an impression before being defeated as the remaining witches before him. Miguel also no longer uses the Black Rope, dashing any hope that he could use it against Sukuna.
Sukuna may not have a serious fighting chance
As Uraume revealed in chapter #252, Sukuna still did not take the war seriously and was has yet to reveal many of his hidden techniques and the possibility and it looks like he won't be able to do that in the near future. Sukuna seems to be desperate for a good fight since the Heian Period when witches threw everything they had at Sukuna in a similar manner. Of course, this raises the question of how they can defeat Sukuna if he's even half as strong as he is.
Either way, it's becoming increasingly clear that the final battle of Jujutsu Kaisen may never be able to reach the heights of the first chapters. Despite the tragic ending, Sukuna's battle against Gojo is still entertaining, never a dull moment, but with Jujutsu Kaisen now having to rely on bringing in supporting characters from over a hundred chapters before returning, it's hard to say whether the final battle will take place or not. capable of recovery.
